We celebrate Communion weekly. All baptized Christians who believe that Jesus Christ is truly present in the bread and wine are invited to join us in the celebration of Holy Communion. Grape juice is available in the center of the tray. After communing, please place your empty cup in the basket on the table. Non-communing children and adults are welcome to come forward for a blessing.

The theme this year is “Savior Servant Friend.”  There is now a 5-quart crock pot available in the kitchen for use with the soup suppers and other FLC congregational events. 

FLC SERVICE OPPORTUNITIES 

There are opportunities coming up that we need members to do the planning for or assist with. The first opportunity is for light refreshments after worship service on one Sunday of each month. We have March and April covered already. Snacks could be cookies, cookie bars, fruit, or other small treats that will be enjoyable as people talk after church in the narthex. The second opportunity is preparations for the church's 45th anniversary of founding. This will be a short term ministry team. If you are interested in either of these opportunities, please let Ruth Albert or Pastor Robin know.
